A joint resolution on Transparency and State of Play of ACTA negotiations from virtually all party groups in the European Parliament was tabled earlier today. It will debated tonight and faces a vote on Wednesday. If approved, the resolution marks a major development in the fight over ACTA transparency. It calls for public access to negotiation texts and rules out further confidential negotiations. Moreover, the EP wants a ban on imposing a three-strikes model, assurances that ACTA will not result in personal searchers at the border, and an ACTA impact assessment on fundamental rights and data protection.

I am using Slackware 13 x86_4. I have it set so that when I close my lid, it suspends to RAM. When I open my lid, it asks for password, but after I enter it, it freezes. I force KDE down by Ctrl+Alt+Backspace then read the errors. It says: Code: xauth: error in locking authority file /home/ridwan/.Xauthority
rm: cannot remove '/home/ridwan/.serverauth.3457': Read-only file system When I try to startx again, it says Code: /usr/bin/startx: line 158: cannot create temp file for here document: Read-only file system
/usr/bin/startx: line 174: cannot create temp file for here document: Read-only file system
/usr/bin/startx: line 174: cannot create temp file for here document: Read-only file system

Fatal server error:

xauth: error in locking authority file /home/ridwan/.Xauthority
rm: cannot remove '/home/ridwan/.serverauth.4151': Read-only file system It forces me to power off the laptop by holding down the power button. When I try ctrl+alt+delete, I get an error saying "can't execute from /sbin/shutdown/"

Thanks!

I have written one sample code where I allocate memory and then free it. What I observed was whenever allocation was done, VmData is increased. Whenever that memory is accessed (memset or use it), VmRss is increased. When that pointer is freed, both VmData and VmRSS come back to original value.

But I am working on an existing code, where the system memory is constantly increasing. I have used all memory leak tools and am not finding leaks. What my observation is VmRSS is increasing by 4k constantly. When it increases by a few times then only VmData is increases and eventually VmSize and system then runs out of memory.

Can anybody explain why VmRSS is increasing and VmData is not increasing.

I have verified it on Linux - 2.4 kernel

Hi there
I´m like my alias a retired person, and Its never to late to learn something, I´ve just installed Ubuntu and found a tutorial online about bash-script.Manage some, but I cant to this one:

[Write a script that makes file executable and writes a message that it has been done.
If I run the command > <scriptName> <fileName> , then the file fileName should be executable and then it should indicate that fileName have been executable.]

I´ve read man pages up-n-down and search the web, and I think I should let the script use chmod and ls -l, but I cant get the hole picture here. Actually I have nothing to show up, so I hope someone could help me with some ideas or a soloution - just to the how it should look.

This is my first post, ever, at a forum like this, so please be nice if I didnt follow any rules here, I dont know if you even will answer this post, but at least give me some clues, a skeleton-code ti be based on.

Thank you!

Hi, is it possible to access main program function from dynamically linked library in c language?

For example:
main.c:
Code: #include<stdio.h>

void func()
{
        printf("I'm main program function");
}

int main()
{
        /*
        load library code here
        */
        (*lib_func)();
        return 0;
} How can I access func() function from library? My first idea was to access it by adress but is there simpler way?

Hi,
I've worked out how to get ALSA libasound code working for an application.
However I can't workout how to get multiple sounds working at once. Can anyone tell me or point me to an example of how to do this? I can't seem to find any google examples of mutiple sounds. EG tune plays while pressing buttons makes clicks.

I'm using an embedded board so need to use ALSA not an addon eg sdlmixer,jack etc.

Thanks :)

Hi all,

Okay so I'm working on a program here as I'm learning java,
I have an array that is initialized with 5 objects that are hard coded.
I have made a GUI that takes the input needed and creates an object with those values.
I need to add that object to the ArrayList that I have previously made.

Okay, so I have three classes, guiclass.java, main.java and gladiator.java

Objects are made and defined in "gladiator"
Main contains my public static void main section, launches my gui, creates my five hard coded objects, creates my ArrayList and adds my five hard coded objects to the ArrayList.

Now, I need to add the object that I generated in the guiSection [action Listener]to the ArrayList that I created in my main class's public static void main string... section. Problem is my arraylist "cannot be resolved" from guiclass.

How do I do this?


The ide i'm using is Eclipse.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

We are using Solaris 10 5/09 s10s_u7wos_08 SPARC

Patch level Generic_142900-02 (Dec 09 PatchCluster release)

Informix DB version 11.5FC6

OS File systems ZFS

System is connected with SAN wich is also configured with ZFS in OS.


Now Problem is Memory

Total memory in system Memory size: 32640 Megabytes

vmstat displays that only 4 GB is left

Code: vmstat 1 3
 kthr      memory            page            disk          faults      cpu
 r b w  swap  free  re  mf pi po fr de sr s0 s4 sd --  in  sy  cs us sy id

While informix is using just 5 to 6 GB and no other process on the system is using significant memory.

On thoroughly investigating I found

Code: mdb -k

Kindly help me what is that ? Is it normal behaviour ?

I’m trying to recompile the 2.6.29.4 kernel to have the megaraid_sas driver built as a module instead of built-in to see if it solves a problem that is happening on a Dell Perc 6 contoller. I’m having some trouble getting it to boot. It compiles fine as a module, but when the system boots, it freaks with a kernel panic and not being able to mount / . It looks like it can’t find the scsi disk controller since it complains about not being able to mount /. I’ve seen this before where I had to rebuild initrd…and preload the right modules…

I’m compiling and installing the modules then rebuilding initrd with --preload=megaraid_sas, but that does not help. Maybe there are more scsi drivers needed to preload?

Any thoughts?

I've searched the net, but it doesn't look like others have had to go from built-in to modules and have this issue.

hi folks i am new to apache2 server i have been trying to start the server using the default httpd.conf file provided in the source code but when i give the following command sudo /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start i receive the above error and the server shuts down. any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

Folks;

I am planning to install any Open-Source ( LINUX ) web browser having all dependencies/plugin-ins on one single location [DIR] and share it over NFS to all other users; So all users can run the executable to start browsing local files (Flash Tutorials) without the need of installing a web browser on every single workstation.

In my case I am using Red Hat Linux 4 update 7 WS all over my work place.

Please advice; Share Ideas :)

Thanks,
